About Us

Archi's Inc is a US-based technology company building innovative digital products and platforms for clients across various industries. We're expanding our engineering team in Kerala and looking for a motivated, detail-oriented Backend Developer to join us full-time and grow with the company.

This isn't just a coding role - we're looking for someone who wants to grow with us. As the team and company scale, we're looking for someone who can take on greater ownership over time and eventually grow into a technical leadership role, mentoring other developers and helping shape our engineering practices.
